Hi! I'm Kathleen and have had sitting gigs/volunteer gigs with kids on and off since high school. I have eight nieces and nephews, so I am super comfortable with kids & there's not much I haven't seen!
Hello! I am friendly, creative, and have experience working with infants to school-age children. Additionally, I can also provide care for seniors, pets, and plants. I have a BS in biology and psychology and a Master of Public Health focusing in education. I am more than happy to provide tutoring services while caring for your little ones. Please reach out if you think I could be a good fit to work with your family.
I am the eldest of 4 children and took care of my younger siblings who I have a 10 year age gap with. I have also been a babysitter for my cousins. I love kids and love spending time with them
Hi-My name is Brennan and I am available for caregiving of all ages, household errands, and pet-sitting.

I love the ages of infant to 5 years old and hope to one day return to caring for and establishing a full time early childhood business. My career since my early 20s has been in education. I worked for 3+ years in Early Childhood Education and later moved to middle school teacher. In addition, I raised two children of my own who are currently in their late teens. I'm currently working as an administrator in the central office of DC Public Schools and am seeking part-time employment as a nanny, babysitter, house sitter, pet sitter, and more. Whatever the family which is the right fit may need.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
Theresa M., parent
